ABOUT THIS ENCYCLOPEDIA
(25-VOLUME SET) |
This 25-volume encyclopedia
contains over seven-hundred state-of-the-art review chapters
organized in an A-Z format to provide a complete coverage of
advanced research in all nanotechnology related fields such as
chemistry, physics, engineering and medical sciences. The review
chapters are contributed by over 2,000 of the world's leading
scientists from top-notch academic and industrial institutions
worldwide. This 25-volume encyclopedia now contains 710 articles,
150,000 bibliographic citations and thousands of illustrations,
figures, tables, and equations covering ca 22,000 pages which
hundreds of images/figures/illustrations in color. The 25-volume set
contains the largest number of state-of-the-art review chapters ever
published in the world in the field of nanotechnology. Each chapter
is fully cross-referenced, introducing some of the most important
nanotechnologies under development today. The first edition of the
Encyclopedia of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology, 10-Volume Set,
(Edited by H. S. Nalwa, Foreword by Professor Richard E. Smalley,
Nobel Prize Laureate, Endorsed by Professor Jean-Marie Lehn, Nobel
Prize Laureate) that appeared in 2004 received the "Best

"The Encyclopedia
of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology is the world's first single
most comprehensive reference source ever published in the field of
nanotechnology. This encyclopedia is an indispensable source for any
research professional as well as for technology investors and
developers seeking up-to-date information on the nanotechnology
among a wide range of disciplines from science to engineering to
medicine. It should inspire future generations of academic and
industrial researchers who endeavor to develop new nanoscale
materials and devices." |

"In view of
the great interest that Nanoscience and Nanotechnology are
attracting, the rapid development they are experiencing and of the
profound impact they will have, an Encyclopedia covering this field
is most welcome. It should become a source of inspiration as well as
of information for a very wide range of scientists." |

ENCYCLOPEDIA
DESCRIPTION |
Encyclopedia
of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology®
is
the World's first encyclopedia ever published in the field of
nanotechnology. The 10-volume Encyclopedia is an unprecedented
single reference source that provides ideal introduction and
overview of most recent advances and emerging new aspects of
nanotechnology spanning from science to engineering to medicine.
Although there are many books/handbook and journals focused on
nanotechnology, no encyclopedic reference work has been published
covering all aspects of nanoscale science and technology dealing
with materials synthesis, processing, fabrication, probes,
spectroscopy, physical properties, electronics, optics, mechanics,
biotechnology, devices, etc. The Encyclopedia fills this gap to
provide basic information on all fundamental and applied aspects of
nanotechnology by drawing on two decades of pioneering research. It
is the only scientific work of its kind since the beginning of the
field of nanotechnology bringing together core knowledge and the
very latest advances. It is written for all levels audience that
allows non-scientists to understand the nanotechnology while
providing up-to-date latest information to active scientists to
experts in the field. This outstanding encyclopedia is an
indispensable source for research professionals, technology
investors and developers seeking the most up-to-date information on
the nanotechnology among a wide range of disciplines from science to
engineering to medicine. |
